  • It's Tea Time: Teach, Encourage, and Adore
    It’s Tea Time! How often do you sit down and sip tea with a special person in your life? There are many traditions around high tea and afternoon tea time. Etiquette would say to serve a meal with meat during high tea, or pastries, little sandwiches, scones, and cakes during afternoon tea. Fellowship is the key. It's an opportunity to share our love.  John 13:34 says, "I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, that you also love one another." (NASB). By the end of this episode, you'll have a new idea for how you can approach tea time. Join us Tuesday, May 30, at 3:30 PM (PT), as we consider the acronym T.E.A., for a practical Tea Time! Call in to speak with the host (646) 668-2946.  Hope4Today is an outreach program of Yield to the King Ministry.

  • On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand
    As believers in Christ, we know He is our solid rock and firm foundation. He is our cornerstone when we completely trust and are committed to Him. Are we standing on a firm foundation that will endure the test of time?

    In Matthew 7:25 (NIV), Jesus speaks of building our life on a solid rock by saying, "The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock."  He goes on to contrast the wise vs. the foolish man.

    Join us Tuesday, April 18, at 3:30 PM (PDT), as we glean wisdom on how to journey with Christ as our solid rock.

  • Christ is Risen, He is Risen Indeed!
    Resurrection Day is a time of rejoicing. On our behalf, Christ our Savior and Lord conquered the wages of sin. Death no longer has its sting.  We are free indeed!   Luke chapter 24, verses 6 and 7, says, "He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rises again.' " (NKJV)

    Join us Tuesday, April 4, at 3:30 PM (PDT) for a quick prayer of thanks to our Risen Lord as we await Resurrection Day.

  • Debt to Sin: Paid in Full
    As believers in Christ, we owe our lives to Him. He died for the sins of the world. In Christ, we are free indeed. This Lenten season reminds us of our need for redemption. Jesus Christ atoned for our sins, reconciled us to God the Father, and clothed us in His righteousness. We are in a restored relationship with God after being separated from Him because of our sins. 

    II Corinthians 5:21 (NKJV) says, "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."  The redemptive work of Jesus Christ (true God and true Man) has freed us from the penalty of sin.

    Join us Tuesday, March 21, at 3:30 PM (PDT) for a quick review of our Risen Lord, who paid the price in full of our debt to sin.

  • Ash Wednesday: A Day of Repentance
    Ash Wednesday, also known as the Day of Ashes, is February 22, 2023. This day is a holy day of prayer and fasting. Christians confess their sins and profess their devotion to God. Most Christians will attend a church service where a minister, pastor, priest, or other ordained clergies, will place ashes on the forehead of the worshiper in the shape of a cross. The ashes remind us that we are dust and to dust, we shall return. This ceremony means that we belong to Christ. Genesis 3:19 (NIV) says, ”By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust, you will return.” Join us Tuesday, February 21, at 3:30 PM, PST, as we look at the significance of Ash Wednesday, the start of the Lenten season leading up to Resurrection day.

  • Restorative Connections: Healing for Communities and Families
    Society suggests that living a fragmented life from family and community is the norm. Today, more than ever, the differences, untruths, fear, and ignorance tear our families, communities, and nation apart. Restoration is needed to achieve healing, harmony, and unity. I Peter 5:10 (NIV) says, "And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm, and steadfast."  Join us on Tuesday, November 29, 2022, at 3:30 PM PST, with our special guest Angela M. Davis, founder of Community Connections Seattle Unlimited. God gave Ms. Davis a vision to restore individuals, communities, and groups one circle at a time. She supports families and communities through processes of healing from pain, hurt, and trauma. Angela's life experiences paved the way for her to solely rely on God’s healing power, mercy, and grace. You will hear Ms. Davis's testimony about how at age 12, she survived losing her mother to suicide. Hope4Today is an outreach program of Yield to the King Ministry.

  • Single Parenting with Grace
    Children are a blessing from God, and parenting is a huge responsibility that shouldn't be taken lightly.  True enough, single parenting is met with many challenges. Generally, the family structure breaks down, and children live with the stigma that they are on the short end of the stick. Single parents can be overcomers by surviving financial hardship, emotional upheaval, and spiritual burdens of unworthiness. Trust in the Lord and His promises so you can live with hope on the horizon.  Psalm 127:3 (NASB) says, "Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward."  God desires single parents to align their families with sound biblical teaching and application. With Him, all things are possible.  Join us on Tuesday, November 15, 2022, at 3:30 PM PST, with our special guest Patrice Harris, founder of The G.O.O.D.E. Foundation. God gave Ms. Harris a vision for the Foundation, and her passion is to uproot the bondage of brokenness and unworthiness in single-parent families with sustainable results. As a single mother, you’ll hear her personal testimony and the transformation that occurred when she surrendered all to God. Ms. Harris is the author of "When the Lord Speaks, Hannah's prayer."

  • All Saints’ Day and Halloween
    All Saints' Day, also known as All Hallows Day, is November 1. Halloween, a contraction of All Hallows' Eve, is a holiday observed on October 31, the evening before All Saints' Day. The Celts believed the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31, they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth. I Thessalonians 5:21-22 says, "Test all things; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil." As believers, we must be careful that we don't mistake evil for good. As followers of Jesus Christ, we must be careful about what we align with -- even in traditional celebrations and fun! Join us Tuesday, November 1, 2022, at 3:30 PM, PDT, as we learn about All Saints' Day, an alternative to Halloween from a biblical perspective. Call in to speak with the host (646) 668-2946.
